XXXVIII.

If the Apostles thought it not reasonable that they should be obstructed in executing their Ministerial office by regulating the distribution of publike Almes to distressed Christian wid∣dowes, and if nothing belonging to discipline agrees better with the preaching of the Gospel then the duties of Charity, then a reason will be hardly found, why they who are set apart for Doctrine must therefore necessarily have to do with discipline.

But the Apostles thought it not reasonable that they should be hindered in their Ministeri∣al employment by regulating the distribution of publike Almes to distressed widowes, and no∣thing belonging to discipline agrees better with the drofession of a Minister of the Gospel, then the duties of charity. Act. 6. 2.

Therefore an Apostolical reason is not to be found, why the Ministers of the Gospel must necessarily be Magistrates in office.
